“I really enjoyed this. I was pleasantly surprised that it was set in Philly, where I am from. The main character has a couple of afflictions that cause her to not leave her home. She uses a drone to "spy" on the outside world. One day, while observing the city, she stumbles across a murder in progress. The murder was part of a much bigger plot, and the "shut-in" is now an obstacle in that plan.”
